Im allgemeinen weist ein Schlagzeug verschiedene Schlaginstrumente auf, wie beispielsweise eine Basstrommel, Schnarrtrommel, ein Tom-Tom und/oder Becken, die alle um einen Spieler oder Schlagzeuger herum angeordnet sind, der unter Verwendung dieser Schlaginstrumente einen Rhythmus spielt. Insbesondere werden Klänge im Hochtonbereich erzeugt unter Verwendung von "Metall"-Schlaginstrumenten wie beispielsweise Becken; Klänge im Mitteltonbereich werden erzeugt unter Verwendung der Schnarrtrommel und des Tom-Tom; Klänge im Tieftonbereich werden ausschließlich erzeugt unter Verwendung der Basstrommel, die eine wichtige Rolle spielt beim Aufprägen eines vollen Eindrucks für ein gespieltes Musikstück. Insbesondere sind Klänge im Tieftonbereich sehr wichtig bei verschiedenen Arten von Musikstücken, weil sie die Grundlage für die Melodie und den Rhythmus des Musikspiels bilden. Aus diesem Grund wurden verschiedene Versuche unternommen, hinsichtlich der Klänge im Tieftonbereich die Klangqualität zu verbessern und die Lautstärke zu erhöhen. Im Fall der Basstrommel ist ein Trommelfell über eine Öffnung eines Kessels mit großem Durchmesser gespannt, um Resonanzfrequenzen zu vermindern und die Lautstärke zu erhöhen. Hinsichtlich des Musikspiels auf einer Bühne sollte jedoch die Größe und Form der Basstrommeln angemessen angepasst werden in Koordination mit anderen Instrumenten.in the In general, a drum kit has various percussion instruments on, such as a bass drum, snare drum, a tom-tom and / or Cymbals, all arranged around a player or drummer are playing a rhythm using these percussion instruments. In particular, sounds become generated in the high frequency range using "metal" impact instruments such as Pool; sounds in the midrange are generated using the snare drum and Tom Tom; sounds in the low frequency range are generated exclusively using the bass drum, which plays an important role in imposing a full impression for one played piece of music. In particular, sounds are in the Low frequency range very important for different types of music pieces because they are the basis for form the melody and the rhythm of the music play. For this Reason, various attempts have been made in terms of sounds to improve the sound quality in the low frequency range and to increase the volume. in the Case of the bass drum is an eardrum over an opening of a large diameter vessel strained to reduce resonance frequencies and increase the volume. Regarding of music playing on a stage However, it should be the size and shape the bass drums are adjusted appropriately in coordination with other instruments.
Allgemein gesagt besitzen menschliche Zuhörer einen guten Gehörsinn hinsichtlich Klängen im Mitteltonbereich, wohingegen sie einen relativ schlechten Gehörsinn hinsichtlich Klängen im Hochtonbereich und im Tieftonbereich besitzen, verglichen mit Klängen im Mitteltonbereich; insbesondere können sie Schwierigkeiten haben, Klänge im Tieftonbereich zu hören. Aus diesem Grund wurden verschieden Verfahren entwickelt, die Erzeugung des Klangs der Basstrommel absichtlich zu verbessern oder zu verstärken. Das klassischste Verfahren sieht ein sogenanntes Doppelspiel vor, bei dem doppelte Basstrommeln gleicher Bauart einander gegenüberliegend angeordnet sind, wobei eine primäre Basstrommel gespielt wird, um Klang zu erzeugen, und wobei eine sekundäre Basstrommel in Resonanz mitschwingt. Jedoch besitzt ein solches Doppelspiel Nachteile, indem es einen relativ großen Raum für den Aufbau von doppelten Basstrommeln erfordert und dadurch das Erscheinungsbild verschlechtert, und es ergibt nicht immer überlegene Effekte trotz der relativ großen investierten Summe.Generally said human listeners possess a good sense of hearing in terms of sounds in the midrange, whereas they have a relatively poor sense of hearing sounds in the treble range and in the low frequency range compared to sounds in the midrange; especially they can have difficulties sounds to hear in the low frequency range. For this reason, different methods have been developed, the generation intentionally improve or amplify the sound of the bass drum. The most classical method provides for a so-called double game, at the double bass drums of the same type opposite each other are arranged, with a primary Bass drum is played to produce sound, and one being secondary Bass drum resonates in resonance. However, such has one Double play disadvantages by having a relatively large space for the Construction of double bass drums requires and thereby the appearance worsens, and it does not always give superior effects despite the relatively large invested sum.
